Which is the best viscosity agent Sodium Carboxy methyl cellulose or Calcium Carboxy methyl cellulose?

Sodium Carboxymethyl cellulose will be better viscosifier as compared to calcium carboxymethyl celluose.Since during washing process sodium chloride will be removed as impurities therefore leading to pure Na CMC with viscosity depending upon the molecular weight of wood pulp or cotton linter.


What is the molecular weight od NaCMC?

The molecular weight of Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose (NaCMC) is approximately 259.1 g/mol.


What is the HLB of an oil?

It depends on the type of oil. Canola oil has an HLB around 6 where as mineral oil has an HLB around 10. Hydrogenated Canola oil has an HLB af around 3 or 4. A more specific answer requires a more specific question.


What is aquacel made of?

Aquacel is a type of wound dressing made primarily of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose fibers derived from cellulose, a natural polymer found in plants. These fibers are highly absorbent and form a gel when in contact with wound exudate, helping to create a moist wound healing environment. Aquacel may also contain additional components such as antimicrobial agents or silver to aid in preventing infection.


What is a cellulose sponge made of?

A cellulose sponge is made of, well, cellulose. Cellulose is the main component of plant cell walls, so many plant derived products are cellulose based. Wood is about 50% cellulose, paper and cardboard are almost entirely cellulose, and most plant fibers are mostly cellulose- cotton is about 90% cellulose. the wikipedia article is decent: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellulose

Is carboxymethyl cellulose a starch?

No, carboxymethyl cellulose is not a starch. It is a derivative of cellulose, which is a structural component in plant cells, and is commonly used as a thickening agent and stabilizer in food products, pharmaceuticals, and other applications.


What is the molecular weight of carboxymethyl cellulose?

Sodium carboxymethylcellulose Molecular weight?

This is a chemical used in many products like detergents, tooth pastes, shampoos, conditioners, ice cream, pharmaceuticals, water based paints, and many more.. It is manafactured by treating cellulose with NaOH and chloro acetic acid. In this process the -OH groups of the cellulose ring are replaced by -CH2COONa groups

Is avicel and carboxy methyl cellulose same?

Avicel is crystalline cellulose, whereas cellulose is soluble cellulsoe, which is synthesized by the alkali-catalyzed reaction of cellulose. Endocellulase works at CMCase wheras, the exocellulases work dominantly at Avicel.


Why are use Carboxymethyl cellulose in cake?

Probably a stabilizer, to help bind everything together to aid rising (cost cutting; that way less mixture is needed per cake).
